Consultancy & Client Representative

London

The client is a legacy consultancy based in Central London looking to hire a Senior Project Manager.

Job Summary:

The client is a legacy consultancy based in Central London looking to hire a Senior Project Manager. Candidates may come from either an architectural background or a pure project-management background. 

This opportunity carries significant responsibility, supporting senior leadership in project coordination, liaising with external design studios, consultants, and internal teams, and overseeing the day-to-day direction of multiple super-prime and prime residential projects. Typical construction values range from £1–£50 million. The role is pivotal in ensuring smooth project delivery while supporting the firms long-term growth and strategic objectives.

• Coordinate diaries, briefings, and meetings between architects/designers and clients. 

• Prepare proposals, presentation documents, and reports alongside senior client leadership. 

• Log minutes and action points from client, partner, and project team meetings. 

• Conduct pre-purchase appraisals and provide strategic input on project feasibility. 

• Lead client-facing activities including presentations, pitching, and design discussions. 

• Assist in selecting and appointing world-class designers, consultants, and design partners. 

Qualifications & Experience:

• ARB/RIBA qualified architect or extensive  experience in architecture, project management, or client-side coordination for high-end residential projects. 

• Proven ability to manage multiple projects, teams, and budgets while maintaining high standards of design quality and client satisfaction. 

• Strong stakeholder management, communication, and organisational skills. 

• Demonstrable experience dealing with UHWNIs and HWNIs 

• Track record of managing projects in London and home counties 

• Experience coordinating multidisciplinary teams on luxury residential projects. 

• Confident in client-facing roles, including presentations, meetings, and pitching.
